As a little girl I was mystified by the appeal of Sean Connery: he looked to me like Richard Nixon, with that prominent nose. I just didn't get it.
Years later, I understood that it was the accent, and the way he carries himself.
But when I was seven years old, I had trouble seeing how he could be considered good-looking.

He does have a cool-ass accent -
"Yesh. Bond. Jamesh Bond. I'll have a martini. Shaken not shtirred."

I remember that when they were looking to replace Timothy Dalton (Pierce Brosnan wound up with the gig), Denzel Washington was considered for the role. For about five minutes, that is. They dropped that idea like a hot potato. I guess the producers thought that the Anglosphere would revolt if a black guy got the gig.

There are a ton of dishy black British guys. I'd start there.
Still--the Indian-British connection is so strong that a native Brit whose parents were Indian would be fabulous.
